MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. –
Junior cross country runner Daniel
Horseman (Cohutta, Ga.) has been awarded Georgia
College Athlete of the Week for the week ending Nov. 21. This is
his third athlete of the week honor.

Horseman took 25th this weekend at the NCAA
Southeast Regional Championships, helping the team to a ninth place
finish. Pacing the Bobcats for the fifth time this season, Horseman
crossed the finish line in the 10K race at 32:51, shattering the
previous school record set in 2008 (Rob
Manning, 33:56) by over a full minute.

The regionals brought a close to the 2010
season for Bobcat cross country, a year that saw Horseman snap both
the 8K and 10K distance school records. The GC men also finished in
the top three in each of their first six races, including a victory
at the Young Harris Invitational. Horseman became the seventh
All-Peach Belt Conference men’s runner in school history.
